Gameplay

Legendary Creature — Goblin Ally

Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell that targets only Zada, copy that spell for each other creature you control that the spell could target. Each copy targets a different one of those creatures.

"A hedron holds magic for a thousand years—or less, if need be."

Any creature you control that couldn't be targeted by the original spell (due to shroud, protection abilities, targeting restrictions, or any other reason) is just ignored by Zada's ability.

If the spell that's copied is modal (that is, it says "Choose one —" or the like), the copies will have the same mode. You can't choose a different one.

Zada's ability triggers whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell that targets only Zada and no other object or player.
